Even better, how about posting some credible links...
We haven't hit 5,000 yet, so no link yet. We have exceeded the carnage from 9/11, so to put it bluntly, dumb'ya's excellent adventure has killed more Americans than Osama bin Laden did in his attack. 'Spose anybody cares?

They have a job to finish?
What job would that be? Please explain how we will know when they are done.
Thank you for you time and consideration in this matter.

Wait, we could give that money to the poor!

No, that money will go a long way in creating socialism, which will buy more votes, which will create more socialism, which will buy more votes, which will create more socialism...

it could build more schools, which would educate the average post ho, who would advocate more schools, and if the cycle perpetuated enough, we might have real discussions in our forum

Your theory is sound, except it wouldn't.
We spend more money on education now than ever before in history. It hasn't gotten better, only worse. Its an interesting case study in the ineffectiveness of huge government programs. Its no wonder that private school students test vastly superior to public schools. Ahhhhhhh socialism...

How about you explain why WE STARTED the war (WMD, Al Qaeda In Iraq and links of Saddam to 9/11 have been proven completely FALSE, so don't even try to use them as reasons)? You can call it "surrender" all you want, but you'd be an idiot apologist for doing so.
Edit to add: Would you rather keep giving all that money to Blackwater, Halliburton and other such companies that produce nothing of use to the greater economy of the United States (remember how much more their people get paid than our soldiers and Marines, and how poor their logistical support activities have been)? I'd rather see it spent to rebuild our roads/bridges/schools/whatever here at home, than pissed away in that sandbox.

Well, your point about huge government programs is just inaccurate.
Many public school systems have been on the decline for a number of years but the administration of those systems has been large when they were doing well and when they went into decline. Many public school systems (Administered by "huge govt programs" are still doing well).
A gross generalization such as yours is meaningless.
